作词 : Stewart | |
You told the man in the Broadway Hotel | |
Nothing was stranger than being yourself | |
And he replied, with a tear in his eye | |
Love was a rollaway | |
Just a cajole away | |
Mist on a summer's day | |
Nothing was clear | |
Love was a smile away | |
Just a defile away | |
I sought it every way | |
No-one came near | |
You asked the man for a room with a view | |
Nothing was said as he stared at his shoe | |
Then he replied as he gave you the key | |
Love was a rollaway | |
Just an unfold away | |
That's all there is to say | |
No-one came near | |
Alone in your room you hide | |
As the night rolls by | |
In the street outside | |
And you feel over the words he said | |
Till they turn to rain all around your head | |
You're seeking a hideaway | |
Where the light of day | |
Doesn't touch your face | |
And a door-sign keeps the world away | |
Behind the shades | |
Of your silent day. | |
You made your home in the Broadway Hotel | |
Room service came at the push of a bell | |
And the man said as he put down the tray | |
Love was a stealaway | |
Just a reveal away | |
I tried to find a way | |
Nothing was clear | |
Then as he turned away | |
You asked the man to stay | |
He was there all the day | |
No-one came near |
